Farah to SOUTH SYDNEY in 2017..OFFICIAL..

[happy_tiger]

Well at least we know Robbie will have some friends to help him pack his bags if he does leave the WT's

 

[sideline_eye]

If he did go, it would only be fair that we pay back the salary cut that he took which is inflating his pay for 2016 and 2017\. At this stage, however, I'll believe it when and if it happens but I believe he still has some good footy left in him for whoever he plays for. What I have against him atm are his latest snide remarks to the press; it seems he just can't help himself.

Ballin is no longer first grade standard

Based on what? Did you actually watch him play for Manly last year or are you going off the single game he's had back since returning from injury?

Last year with Manly he was dreadful. Much like Farah he was a gun hooker in years prior but everyone hits a wall at some stage. Now older and post injury there is not a hope in hell he is the answer.

 

[tig_prmz]

good decision if it's already been made.

he's still a legend of WT in my eyes (partly coz we are short of them) and the sooner he leaves, the more people keep viewing him a legend.

sheens, benji and farah- the story of success and failure.

He wasn't dreadful, he did his job just fine. Manly were dreadful because their pack generally was hopeless and had no go forward. They shafted Ballin because Barrett wanted to bring his own players in.

 

[Fumbles]

His no legend.
On three separate occasions he has been more than happy to give Wests Tigers very bad press while him and his mate Ayoub looked after themselves. That's not a legend.
Yes Robbie you love the club but unfortunately the club doesn't love you. We have seen your true side and we don't like your me me me attitude.

 

[Goose]

Farah has been one of my favorites, I think the club will be better off with Robbie moved on.
I think he still plays well, but the club needs to move on.

I also think that our football works best with quick ball allowing depth and time for our players in motion. That is not Robbie's go.

honestly, he's been like this for as long as i remember. he's a selfish player- that's him. we all knew that, maybe he's gotten better or worse. maybe his selfishness is the reason for sometimes his toughness and being able to win games for us single handedly.

not having a go at anyone here, everyone has a right to feel cheated by farah.

We beg to differ he was one of Manlys worst. Sadly I watch a few manly games he was punted on form age and injury.

 

[diedpretty]

Obviously you were busy sticking needles in your RF doll when the SOO was on!

What's that got to do with what he offers to WT. It was a legitimate question and you harp on about SOO.

 

[Tigermama]

No. He still has a lot to offer the club.

Like what?

It would only be individual things , maybe building on his appearances for the Club or building on his undeserved State of Origin selections .

It's not as if the Club is molding a team around him , he knows the Club doesn't want him anymore just to stubborn to recognize the needs of the Club.

In the NRL community it seems Farah is not liked at all….on Monday Night on the Matty Johns show they were literally laughing at him and taking the piss out of him , even Woodsie was having a laugh when he replied to a question from Hindy " who was the least deserved of a Blues Jersey " he replied with " Farah for sure he doesn't even have to play in the NRL and gets selected " , yeah it was a joke but surely that has to strike a cord with Robbie.

Even Michael Ennis was filthy on Tuesday Night as he felt his form warranted higher honours .

You watch the Mattie Johns Show FT. 😱pen_mouth:
As for Ennis the grub, i hope he never wears the Blues jersey again. He's had his chances, :angry:

Ennis has done a lot of talking about our team and players this week. Needs to leave the talking to on the field and shut up the rest of the time!

 

[krayola]

If Robbie wants to leave after Origin, he should be let go now. It'd be one of the most self-serving decisions I could think of. It just doesn't work that like that. Pretty sure that story is BS though.

Otherwise, he deserves to finish the season. A lot of fans love this guy and he's been one of our very few consistent rep selections over the last 5 years. If we can improve our form a little then he'll be handy for the run home. He's never been good enough to improve a bad team but he's a good complement to a competitive side.

Spot on Krayola. All that talk is motivated by his own self interest to play Origin.

 

[Mighty_Tiger]

Robbie is a club legend despite what had occurred in the last 12mths.

Hopefully it can once and for all come to an end with Robbie joining Leeds on great coin + the club left with alot of money to recruit some quality to support Brooks, Moses and Teddy.

 

[Paris_Cobbs]

Robbie is still the best hooker at Wests Tigers. Ballin is still working his way back from serious injury, Halatau is average, Cherrington is gone to Penrith and Liddle isn't ready.

On Wednesdays performance he is also the best hooker in NSW.

I wish people would stop throwing up the 900K, as it is only arrived at because the contract is backloaded. He is really on about 600K, if you even it out. Part of the discrepancy comes from the fact that he too a huge cut in pay to help the club stay in the cap.

Robbie will be a club legend, when he's gone. If he does go to Leeds I hope it is his decision, not pressured in order to please the coach. In fact, it might be a good time to see both of them Leave the club!

 

[Nors05]

Two scenarios I would be happy with:
A. Robbie gets to play out the year and despite all the bs in the last couple of years, we send him out with a bang and give him the respect he deserves as a club legend
B. Robbie leaves mid-year and we sign Beau Scott mid-year

I'm busy doing the Tipping Comp Ladder after the Final game and it rolls over to his show , i have a laugh at some of the stuff they get up to…..it's more hearing what there saying as i'm organizing the Comp.

 

[Tigerdave]

We're better off without him, financially and clearly on the field as well, we've won more games without him this year.

He's better off going, certainly if they give him 3 years, because he wouldn't get that anywhere in Australia.

 

[Tigerdon]

Last night on the fox NRL sport report, James Hooper said the Origin result might influence Robbies decision playing SuperLeague or NRL.
